Hmmm....Ive seen the preview, but i kinda dont like it overall.
It seems logical that this new BF is placed in the future, but it looks silly to me with all those robots and stuff....

Hello Dude and welcome to Lockergnome!

I myself haven't had time to play it, i'm still playing Oblivion (255 hours and counting!).

I've heard quite a lot of people say that the demo crashes a lot, EA servers disconnect you regularly. I've even heard some people say that it's look just like a BF2 mod.
